Star Monopoly System
Chapter 42
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the fox Sancai with its thick fur is becoming more and more listless. Tu Gang said that it still shows signs of shedding.So when taking a walk with Romeo on the rest day, Zuo Ting took it to the pet shop and had it trimmed.
The pet grooming salon charged a lot of money, but fortunately, Zuo Ting won a lot of money from the bet last time, so it's okay to be extravagant once in a while.
While the two were waiting for the beautician to finish, Romeo asked, "Why haven't you been online recently? And you're not very energetic."
Zuo Ting kept this topic secret, and pretended to be stupid and said in a daze: "It's probably because it's hot, and I'm too tired from studying during the day, so I don't have the energy to do other things at night."
"Come on if you're not energetic. Take advantage of the fact that many girls are paying attention to you recently, interact more online, and seize the opportunity to find a girlfriend." Romeo encouraged.
"..." The problem is, once he is online, he is the one being interacted with, and he has no time to find others!I don't know how Qiao Jiang set it up. Every time he goes online, he will be teleported to a strange place and forced to be alone.Zuo Ting was extremely depressed.
The only good thing is that Qiao Jiang is a gentleman, and apart from arranging dates, he has no other wrongdoing, and he doesn't even verbally tease him too much.
Romeo is a theorist who has no fantasies but has never held hands successfully.Although Zuo Ting wanted to find someone to vomit his bitterness to, he would not choose him.
Seeing Zuo Ting's expression of not wanting to say more, Romeo asked suspiciously: "Could it be that you like boys again? Well, in your situation, you must choose a mature big brother type, not to mention how gentle, but you must be considerate and understand How to take care of you. And—”
All kinds of descriptions of Romeo can be applied to Qiao Jiang, and compared with ideal assumptions, he himself is more perfect.If he hadn't never mentioned Qiao Jiang to the people around him, Zuo Ting would have thought that he was trying to speak out for Qiao Jiang.
It is undeniable that Qiao Jiang is indeed a good person.If he was a woman, she must have fallen in love with him long ago.But what he likes is a girl, and he can't accept a man at all.
Just as Zuo Ting was about to interrupt him, the communicator suddenly rang, it was a message from Tu Gang.
"Xiaoting, where are you?"
Hearing the rare nervousness in Tu Gang's voice, Zuo Ting was also infected, stood up suddenly, and asked nervously: "I'm at the pet store near my home. Teacher, what's the matter? What happened?"
"I'll be at your house right away, wait for me, I have something important to ask you." Without explaining the reason, Tu Gang hastily cut off the communication.
Letting go of the wristband, Zuo Ting was nervous and puzzled: "What happened, why didn't the teacher directly say it on the phone."
"It must be an important matter that needs to be discussed in person. Let's go back right away." Romeo's face became more serious because his friend had something to do.The beautiful red hair was cut short, and the refreshing tricolor had new troubles. They whimpered and scratched their paws on the ground, and the two of them returned to Zuo's house with weird expressions.
Given the distance between the two families, Zuo Ting thought that Tu Gang would arrive in a while.Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into the house, he heard the teacher's eager voice: "Xiaoting, did you secretly go to the battle hall to report your intention to the college without telling everyone?"
"No!" This was completely unexpected, Zuo Ting immediately denied, "If you fail the three-month assessment, you have to be dismissed. At that time, I discussed it with my parents, and you, the teacher, and it was unanimously decided to wait until the promotion. How can you fill in the report in private and waste the opportunity if you study at B level again?"
Speaking of this, Zuo Ting suddenly thought of Qiao Jiang, who had been chasing him so closely recently, and a completely reasonable guess suddenly popped up: Could it be that Qiao Jiang secretly reported it?With his authority, he can do it completely!No wonder he's been a gentleman recently, it turned out that he had already made arrangements and was not in a hurry!
In terms of motivation and ability, Qiao Jiang is completely in line.But at the moment when he thought of this "suspect", Zuo Ting didn't have much anger in his heart, instead he felt a stagnation feeling of disappointment and sadness.
What's wrong with me?Could it be that he was really brainwashed by Qiao Jiang?
Zuo Ting was deeply annoyed by his reaction.Shaking his head slightly to get rid of this inexplicable thought, he asked, "Teacher, what's going on?"
"Half an hour ago, I received a notice from the Battle Hall, saying that the Imperial Military Academy has approved your application and asked you to report within a week." Tu Gang's voice was full of puzzlement and confusion, "I double-checked and they said it wasn't a joke. I asked who filled it out, and they said there was no specific record, but someone did submit the form."
Speaking of this, Zuo Mao, who also just rushed back, continued: "The teacher contacted me first, I thought you suddenly wanted to go to school, and I was afraid that we would stop you, so you went to declare secretly. But if it's not you, who could it be?" ?”
Tu Gang guessed: "Could it be that something went wrong in a certain link?"
The more Zuo Ting heard it, the more he felt uncomfortable: It was exactly the same as the last rescue, and there was no trace of what he did, it was all Qiao Jiang's handwriting.Did I guess right, it was really him?
Ignoring the restlessness in his heart, he asked again: "Teacher, can I cancel it?"
"There's no way to cancel it." Tu Gang shook his head and sighed slightly, "You don't have to report it. But if you do this, it's tantamount to wasting this opportunity."
Zuo Mao was also frowning, and asked, "Is there a way to file a complaint and get it back?"
"If you find out before the battle hall, that's fine. But now that the application has been approved, there's nothing you can do about it." Tu Gang said sullenly, "I've asked a few old friends about it, and they all said it would be troublesome to withdraw it. And mostly unsuccessful."
The incident was a done deal, and there was no room for redemption, and everyone in the room fell silent.
In the eyes of everyone, people of the right age on the entire planet are competing for the top three positions in the battle hall, and the ranking is not so easy.The great opportunity that came by accident is gone, and Zuo Ting may not have the ability and luck to win the top three in a year or two.
Zuo Ting himself also thought of this, and he couldn't help feeling a little bit of resentment towards Qiao Jiang: For his own selfishness, he was forced to take him to the imperial capital regardless of his wishes and the actual situation. This person is really selfish!Before wasting myself, I thought he was not bad!
He can only bury all kinds of complaints in his heart and cannot tell anyone.And this depression, in turn, deepened the anger.
In the silence, Romeo suddenly said: "Zuo Ting, instead of wasting the opportunity, how about giving it a try?"
Hearing his friend's suggestion, Zuo Ting pursed his lips and said nothing.
Since there is no way to change it, then minimize the loss.
Normally, he would think so, but he would never agree to this matter.If he went to the imperial capital, wouldn't that be right in Qiao Jiang's arms?He will never let that fellow get his wish!
But Tu Gang has already begun to think seriously about this proposal: "It makes sense, let's take it as a way to familiarize yourself with the campus environment in advance. We can make an agreement with the school in advance that only Xiaoting will take cultural courses, and mecha and physical classes will be temporarily on the sidelines." .”
Zuo Mao also admitted: "Xiaoting has never been to school. If he goes to college directly in the future, he may delay his progress because he is not used to it. Anyway, it would be a waste not to go this time. Why don't you go to experience and get used to it first, and then formally enroll in the future. It saves a lot of trouble.”
"No." Zuo Ting directly refused.Qiao Jiang expected everyone's reaction, right?Then he can't agree!
"Xiaoting?" Zuo Mao looked at his sensible son in surprise, not understanding why he was making a fuss this time.
Tu Gang thought that his disciple was angry for wasting opportunities, and persuaded him: "Xiaoting, you are only under 17 years old this year, and you will encounter many accidents in the future. If you respond with anger every time, you should lose it." How many opportunities? Digging for opportunities in adversity and trying to make the situation beneficial to you is what you should do."
Zuo Ting naturally has a deep understanding of this truth.He was able to fight alone in his previous life and create a career by himself, relying on the same principle.But there are so many emotions, there is really no way to weigh them with the law of interests in business.
Seeing that he still resisted, Tu Gang thought that the disciple who wanted to be strong was worried that he would not be able to live alone, but he was too embarrassed to show weakness, so he said: "It just so happens that Tu Sen has recently finished his special training and is going to Blue Star to rest for a while. I will let him Let him accompany you to enroll early, anyway, in three or four months, he should report to the college, and it would be good to be an auditor in advance."
Romeo also interjected: "I'm going to enroll in a cram school recently, so let my grandmother arrange me to go to the imperial capital. There are many famous schools there, which is beneficial to me. We can also hang out together on our rest days like now."
Zuo Mao said: "Recently, the cake shop's business is getting better and better, and there are people sent by Ms. Lan to take care of it. I don't have to worry about it for the time being. I will take a long vacation with the association and go there with you. Xiaoting, Dad hasn't seen you for several years. I went to the imperial capital, and I heard that there are many interesting places added. Take this opportunity, you take Dad to play, okay?"
Hearing the words of relatives and friends, Zuo Ting fell silent.
He is not really 17 years old, not so impulsive and unscrupulous.The experience of being an orphan in his previous life made him cherish his family and friends.And he couldn't give a reason.If you just stick to it, everyone will be disappointed, even if you don't blame it.
Zuo Ting didn't want to disappoint everyone's kindness, let alone disappoint everyone.After hesitating again and again, he finally nodded: "Okay, I'll go. What procedures should I go through?"
At the same time, he thought viciously in his heart: If Qiao Jiang dares to harass him regardless of his dignity, then complain him!Expose him!Let everyone in the galaxy know how bad this so-called perfect handsome man is!By the way, I will be online tonight, and I will first condemn him for his insidiousness!
In the heart of the whole afternoon to type the draft, when it was the default meeting time in the evening, Zuo Ting, who was sharpening his sword, couldn't wait to kill the Internet, ready to ask the teacher for his crime.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they met, before they had time to speak, Qiao Jiang said slightly reproachfully: "I heard about your registration, it's just nonsense."
The pet grooming salon charged a lot of money, but fortunately, Zuo Ting won a lot of money from the bet last time, so it's okay to be extravagant once in a while.
While the two were waiting for the beautician to finish, Romeo asked, "Why haven't you been online recently? And you're not very energetic."
